4-arylamino-2-(2-acetoxyethyl)amino-6-methylpyrimidines: Synthesis,deacetylation, and biological activity

The reaction of 2-(2-acetoxyethyl)amino-4-chloro-6-methylpyrimidine with aromatic amines leads to a series of 4-arylamino-2-(2-acetoxyethyl)amino-6-methylpyrimidines. Deacetylation of these compounds proceeds in both acidic and basic media. Most of the arylaminopyrimides obtained exhibit a pronounced antituberculous effect.     

Reactivity of a Ti–45.9Al–8Nb alloy in air at 700–900°C

A Ti–45.9Al–8Nb (at%) alloy with a lamellar structure (γ+α₂) was oxidised in air at 700, 800, 850 and 900°C in isothermal and thermal cycling conditions. The reaction progress was followed by thermogravimetric measurements. In isothermal conditions the oxidation kinetics followed approximately a parabolic rate law and the rate constants ranged from about 10^–12 kg² m^–4 s^–1 at 700°C to 10^–10 kg² m^–4 s^–1 at 900°C. The oxide scales were built of Al₂O₃ and TiO₂, the former being the main component of the outermost layer. The oxidation behaviour of Ti–45.9Al–8Nb was referred to a commercial titanium alloy, WT4 (Ti–6Al–1Mn), and selected oxidation-resistant alloys.     

Homothetic self-similar solutions of three-dimensional Brans-Dicke gravity

All homothetic self-similar solutions of the Brans-Dicke scalar field in three-dimensional spacetime with circular symmetry are found in closed form.     

UNIFORM CONVERGENCE OF CESARO MEANS OF NEGATIVE ORDER OF DOUBLE TRIGONOMETRIC FOURIER SERIES

In this paper we prove that iff ∈ C([-π,π]2) and the function f is bounded partial p-variation for some p ∈ [1, ∞), then the double trigonometric Fourier series of a function f is uniformly (C;-α,-β) summable (α β＜ 1/p,α,β＞ 0) in the sense of Pringsheim. If α β≥ 1/p, then there exists a continuous function f0 of bounded partial double trigonometric Fourier series of fo diverge over cubes.     

Diffusion in flows with a linearly nonuniform velocity profile

Methods of group analysis are applied to determine the Green’s function in the infinite space of the test particle diffusion equation for flows with a linearly nonuniform velocity profile. Using this function, the solutions of the Cauchy problem are obtained for certain particular initial conditions.     

Dynamics of moving interacting atoms in a laser radiation field and optical size resonances

The forces acting on interacting moving atoms exposed to resonant laser radiation are calculated. It is shown that the forces acting on the atoms include the radiation pressure forces as well as the external and internal bias forces. The dependences of the forces on the atomic spacing, polarization, and laser radiation frequency are given. It is found that the internal bias force associated with the interaction of atomic dipoles via the reemitted field may play an important role in the dynamics of dense atomic ensembles in a light field. It is shown that optical size resonances appear in the system of interacting atoms at frequencies differing substantially from transition frequencies in the spectrum of atoms. It is noted that optical size resonances as well as the Doppler frequency shift in the spectrum of interacting atoms play a significant role in the processes of laser-radiation-controlled motion of the atoms.     

Thermal management for a poly(methyl acrylate) optical fiber in solar lighting

We present a 3-D thermal analysis of a poly(methyl acrylate) optical fiber to select a method to prevent thermal degradation (TD) of the fiber. Such poly(methyl acrylate)-core optical fibers have been realized in many solar lighting applications. We give the radial and axial temperature distributions on the entrance region of the optical fiber for two solar collector designs and five different preventive methods. The simulation results showed that attachment of a fused quartz rod to the fiber entrance region was an efficient low-cost way to protect the optical fiber. A temperature was predicted for the deformed fiber entrance region of the experimental results from the simulations.     

Technology for producing adsorbents from petroleum residues

Advantage of use residue from thermal cracking and products of its condensation as components of the mixture for manufacturing mechanically rigid (93%) granulated and ground carbon sorbents with extended volume of micropores (up to 0.27 cm³/cm³), showing enhanced sorption activity (E is up to 25.6 kJ mol^?1) and high ability of separation various gas mixtures is demonstrated. As a carrier for medicine preparations these adsorbents show higher performance as compared with industrial samples. Solutions of the cracking residue can be used for impregnation of worked out zeolites for petroleum technology and for production of organomineral adsorbents with high adsorption capacity on extraction mercury from sewages.
